Parent Villages asks CPA for $74,500 to finish repairs at Whitcomb Building
Summary
Parent Villages requested roughly $74,500 to complete facade, roof and accessibility work at the Whitcomb Building (32 Hamden Street), saying prior CPA funding helped but remaining water infiltration and energy inefficiency still impair nonprofit programming that serves about 200 families annually.
Latonia Manuel Naylor, president and CEO of Parent Villages, told the committee she is requesting $74,500 to complete a roof and facade phase at the Whitcomb Building (32 Hamden Street). She described prior CPA funding that supported some initial work and said outstanding water infiltration and HVAC inefficiencies continue to raise operating costs and create damage to program spaces used by the nonprofit.
Latonia summarized the organization’s programs — two‑generation supports, survivor assistance and youth leadership work — noting they reach an estimated 200 families per year. She said the Whitcomb Building is owner‑occupied by Parent Villages and that rents and any tenant income are reinvested in building upkeep and programming. The proposed phases and contingencies were provided in the packet and she asked the committee to consider the request in light of ongoing program needs.
No vote was taken; committee members registered the application and had no substantive questions during the call.
